Marina opens this Saturday. They’re having an event. Food and test drives. Could be a $100K year drive haha boat goes in the water the 22nd. It’s still warming up here but no freezing temperatures. Gives me time to get on there and get everything ready for the season.

I've snuck out a couple times since I got the boat 3 weeks ago. It was ok but a still a little too cool. I'm gonna say my season starts TOMORROW :) The lift is being installed tomorrow and it's gonna be 79.

I can't wait to hear what you like and don't like about your boat and the performance.

Really I saw nothing wrong with boating there on January or February.
The water's too cold to swim. Some days the air temp is nice, some it's a little chilly. Basically it just gets boring quick, the lake is fairly small and not much to see when you've been out several times, and you can only float for so long without anything to do like swim or pull tubers or skiers.

Boat comes out of storage soon, will spend some time tinkering/cleaning, usually we put in on Memorial weekend, although some years it's just to cold
